The lanthanoid contraction causes the radii of the third transition series elements to be very similar to those of the corresponding second series elements. The nearly identical radii of Zr (160 pm) and Hf (159 pm), resulting from the lanthanoid ...
The lanthanoid contraction is caused by imperfect shielding of one electron by another in the same sub-shell. While the decrease in atomic radii is not quite regular, M³⁺ ions exhibit a more regular contraction. This is attributed to the imperfect ...
The lanthanoid contraction refers to the overall decrease in atomic and ionic radii from lanthanum to lutetium. It is a unique feature in the chemistry of the lanthanoids and has far-reaching consequences, particularly in the third transition series.
The chemistry of actinoids is more complex due to a wide range of oxidation states and the complications arising from their radioactivity. The occurrence of various oxidation states and the challenges posed by radioactivity make the study of actinoids more ...
